A person whom I know, having the immediate reversion of an estate, part in houses, part in land, rented the land of a person who had the life-interest in both. The life-owner letting the houses go to ruin, the reversionary, to indemnify himself, stop the rent of the land. The life-owner died without repairing the houses, as he was bound: the consequence was, that the reversioner, (as he was advised, to his great surprise) though obliged to pay his rent, lost his remedy for the waste.
